Cascading Rivers of Black Lyrics

The beauty of eternal darkness
Now spreads across this land
Changing our reality
The end of time has come for man

Barren wastelands
With nothing left alive
Withered vegetation
Where no light ever shines

Searing winds have scorched the earth
A new beginning is given birth
The water thickened and painted red
From all of those who have bled...

Cascading rivers of black
Flow with blood from the dead

Now the time has come
For us to reign
Misery is given life
Through everlasting pain


3. Solar Journey

I stand alone now
In this ruined world
Desolation was caused
By futile wars
For those who fought
Are all dead and gone
Though constant battle
Has made me so very strong

As I take a look around
At this dying earth
There is nothing left for me
So what must occur
Dark revelations
Embrace my tortured mind
The solar journey
Is the only path I find

The time has come to leave this place
Drift alone in deep space
Journey towards the burning sun
Back to where it all begun

I board my vessel
And head for the stars
Through this cosmic trail
I will travel so far
Enjoy the serenity
Here alone in space

This solar journey will
Take me back in time
To defy the ways of God
And all mankind
Returning to the ways
Of everlasting pain
Where chaos is the law
And blood falls like rain

Now approaching the sun
It's burning my skin
Blistering flesh appears
Final descent into the flames
Finally the end is here
I couldn't imagine
That the pain I will feel
Is worse than before
Exploding within
This journey complete
As I pierce through the core

There in front of me is my destiny
To invade the world
Of the holy trinity
To bring it down is my master plan
As the war begins I make my final stand

The time has come to burn this place
Annihilate the human race
Showing them that I am the way
The world never thought
It would see the day

Now that I come to this journey's end
My mission is completed with their death
Returning to a place that I call home
To suffer forever all alone

Fall of Empyrean was established in the year 2000, to this day depressing the world with its effective brand of emotional doom/death metal. Throughout the years, the band has gained a strong following throughout not only the United States, but also mainland Europe, Scandinavia, Russia and the Baltic states, Japan, South Korea, South America, Mexico, Australia, and a number of other countries. The band has established itself as a mainstay of the US doom metal scene, rising quickly in the ranks.

Over the course of its existence, Fall of Empyrean has released three CDs: a self-titled demo, and two full-length albums: Anhedonia (2002) and A Darkness Remembered (2004). A Darkness Remembered was released worldwide by Oak Knoll Productions, with distribution through a number of labels, distros, and record stores. Anhedonia was re-released in 2003 by Russian label CD-Maximum, with the self-titled demo included as bonus tracks. The band's releases have all been critically well-received, with dozens of reviews, interviews, and radio exposure throughout the world and via Internet radio. In one of the band's greatest accomplishments, A Darkness Remembered was named doom metal album of the year by European magazine, Metal Maniac Magazine, receiving a rating of 9 out of 10—the highest score given at the time.

In 2007, the band finished writing, recording, mixing, and mastering their third full-length album, A Life Spent Dying, with Ryan Butler of Arcane Digital Recording studios, in Chandler, Arizona. In early 2009, Fall of Empyrean signed a four-album deal with Germany's Grau Records, with A Life Spent Dying to be released first, later in 2009. The band continues strong, rehearsing for shows and promotions for their upcoming album.
